I’ve invested a bit of time getting my MOX configured for a specific set of material and have backed up the settings. I’m now considering getting a MOXF. Can I restore my MOX settings in a MOXF using the MOX backup? It appears that they share a lot of the same architecture and parameters. |

From page 157 of the MOXF Reference Manual, the MOXF is compatible with these MOX files:
As to SysEx (mentioned in your topic), the MOXF is not compatible with MOX messages. The model ID is intentionally different to prevent reception of data meant for another synth. |

The settings that I’ve made in the MOX8 include tweaks of voice parameters, layers, splits, and MIDI channel assignments (from external keyboard) all within the Song mode. Are these changes covered in the following file types:
All .X4A
If I could port over all my MOX changes to the MOXF, that would save me a lot of time. Mark |

From what you have described, I would say an ALL file will contain the required data… including system utility settings. If you have access to a MOXF (such as at a local music store), why not take in a file and LOAD it in? |

Excellent! That’s great to hear. Brilliant idea re testing the transfer at a store. Will first read how to create the specific ALL file on the MOX, and equally important, how to run a “Restore-to-Factory” initialization on the MOXF to leave the store’s machine back to factory. Thanks, cmayhle! |
